Are you a healthcare practitioner that would like to get better clinical results? Would you like to also learn to prevent burnout and lead by example?
Or are you a member of the public who is interested in health, functional medicine, and meditation? Do you want to learn to become healthier and happier?
Dr. Miles Nichols is a functional medicine and oriental medicine doctor who specializes in empowering people to take charge of their health and recover from chronic illness. In this workshop, Dr. Miles will not only teach about the art and science of nutrition, but also guide those of the group who would like (optional) through a fasting-like diet (still eating limited amounts of food in a way designed to reap the benefits of a fast).
Fasting Mimicking Diet has been shown in research to:
Reduce inflammation
Improved immune function
Promote fat loss while preserving muscle
Improve cholesterol and blood pressure
Promote longevity (increase telomeres)
And much more
Dr. Miles will reveal and demonstrate how he moves patients in his clinic through a similar process with discussion about the incredible results for reversing chronic disease. At the same time, he will sort through the conflicting information about different dietary plans including paleo, low FODMAP, ketogenic, Mediterranean, vegetarian, and vegan diets. He will discuss what research has shown as well as his clinical experience with treating different chronic diseases. He will reveal his #1 dietary strategy for weight-loss that often gets people past plateaus without having to count calories.
In addition to nutrition, Dr. Miles has found that Sheng Zhen Meditation is equally as powerful for reversing chronic illness and restoring happiness. Dr. Miles will teach a moving form and a non-moving meditation practice that students will be able to take home with them and do for themselves. In a small pre-post lab test with 3 clients that Dr. Miles performed in his clinic, he found that cortisol (a stress hormone) decreased by 11% and DHEA (a longevity hormone related to immune health, bone strength, and fat burning) increased by 25%! This was after just one weekend of Sheng Zhen Meditation training without any supplements or dietary changes.
Please join us for a transformational experience and to learn and better understand how to help yourself and others in your life to reverse chronic illness and restore health and happiness!

Terence Dunns Flying Phoenix Qigong
Flying Phoenix Qigong with Master Terry Dunn is a 3-day immersive workshop that teaches Flying Phoenix Heavenly Healing Chi Meditations (Fei Feng San Gung), a rare and extraordinarily powerful medical Qigong system that was created more than 400 years ago by renowned Taost monk Feng Dao Deh of Ehrmeishan. In this workshop, you will learn this complete Taoist monastic system of hygienics comprised of standing and seated, stationary and moving meditations that imparts a wide range of salient health benefits with remarkable swiftness: increased respiratory power, improved circulation and metabolism, higher energy levels, improved neuro-muscular function and balance, peak immunity, increased bone strength, and the allostatic reversal of many signs of aging.
Flying Phoenix Qigong imparts its remarkable health benefits through a yogic mechanism that brings all the organ functions of the body under the regulation of the subconscious mind. This super-regulating process and energy cultivation is brought on by each of the 24 Flying Phoenix Meditations, which consists of (A) an easy-to-do breath-control formula followed by (B) a meditation in repose or a serene moving meditation using repetitive natural movements that are done three times slower than typical Tai Chi practice. The esoteric breathing formula that precedes each Flying Phoenix meditation ignites a specific flow of Qi in the body that is tangible; the following posture and movements circulate the energy through specific orbs of the body. Flying Phoenix Qigong is easier to learn and practice than Tai Chi and its health benefits are tangible, profound, and more immediate. Long term Flying Phoenix practice activates mans latent healing potential and cultivates a superabundance of the distinctively tangible and visible Flying Phoenix Energy (Qi) that has extraordinary healing properties unlike any type of energy generated by any other form of Yoga.
Besides providing its splendid health benefits, Flying Phoenix Qigong integrates mind and body so deeply that it develops highest structural sensitivity that imbues the practitioner with deepest levels of jhanic absorption that naturally carries over into any other form or mode of meditation, making it deeper and more comfortable and blissful.
The proof of the Flying Phoenix Pudding is this lively worldwide discussion thread now in its eight year, with 4500 postings and 590,000+ views, on which Master Dunn answers all questions on a weekly basis:
